The burial chamber of the Second Purpose was rudimentary, with only a coffin that was about to decay into mud, and there was nothing of value in it.

When everyone was about to leave, I suddenly found that Zha Ling'er was gone.

Ever since I experienced the incident of the tanuki pretending to be a fake Zha Ling'er, I have consciously paid attention to Zha Ling'er's dynamics from time to time. As a result, when I got up from the ground, I was shocked to find that she was missing, and immediately began to ask my teammates around me.

Everyone shook their heads, I and the smoke man Seventh Master have always only paid attention to studying the dry bones on the ground, the fat man and the monkey were so annoyed that they complained to each other because there was no clear weapon in the coffin, Duan Er Ye leaned on the corner of the wall to supplement sleep, and the night owl said that he had been guarding the entrance of the collapsed cave and had not seen anyone go out from there. Everyone was busy with their own things, and no one found that Zha Ling'er was missing.

I looked around nervously and said in my heart: How could such a big living person disappear quietly under everyone's noses, this is really weird!

It is important to find Zha Ling'er, since the night owl said that Zha Ling'er did not go out of the only hole, then he must still be in this earth cave tomb, but as far as the eye of this tomb can reach, there is no big living person to hide. So everyone thought that there must be a secret passage in this tomb, so they began to look for it.

Everyone turned the earth cave tomb upside down in a hurry, and the coffin that was rotten into a puddle of mud was pouted from the ground, but they didn't find any secret passages, nor did they find the shadow of Zha Ling'er.

I thought to myself: What the hell is this in broad daylight - it's weird! There is no secret passage on the wall or on the ground, so how did Zha Ling'er disappear in this secret room-like place?

Suddenly. I suddenly remembered a possibility, and immediately looked up. As a result, I broke out in a cold sweat.

See, above our heads. There was a dried corpse floating in the air.

After I was frightened, I immediately shone the flashlight upwards, and everyone looked up at me with a look of surprise when they saw the sweat on my forehead.

Hanging above our heads was a dried corpse in a Taoist robe, whose clothes had been tattered and rotten over the years, and the remains were also mutilated.

The crowd was horrified that there was a hanged ghost hanging above their heads, but no one found it. And it's no wonder. The burial chamber hung high above it, and it was pitch black inside, and everyone was attracted by the rotten coffins and dry bones on the ground, and they didn't pay attention to the top of their heads.

I heard someone next to me say "bad luck", and I thought to myself: Looking at the clothes of this Taoist priest, I know that he is not a modern person, but I don't know why he hanged himself here.

I'm going to take it down and examine it, and maybe I'll get some information about this burial chamber from it, and I'll be here in vain. And. I plan to bury this Taoist friend on the spot, after all, the Chinese pay attention to entering the soil for safety, which can be regarded as a merit.

After too many terrifying experiences, I am not interested in the immovable corpse. It's to the point of insensitivity, and it doesn't produce any disgust.

The corpse of the Taoist priest hanging above has been weathered into dry bones. If you're not careful, you risk falling apart. So I asked the fat man and Duan Erye, who knew kung fu, to find a way to gently remove the corpse.

The monkey interjected on the side and said, "Master Wen." What are you doing with that effort? Just cut the rope and you'll be fine. ”

I ignored the monkey's construction and told the fat man to be careful, but the fat man who had just climbed the wall suddenly shouted, "Lao Zheng, there is a hole in it." ”

It turned out that there was a hole on the top of the burial chamber, but it was blocked by the hanging remains of a Taoist priest, so everyone did not find it.

The fat man and Duan Erye gently put down the body of the Taoist priest, and I immediately raised a flashlight to shine it upward, thinking: Could it be that Zha Ling'er's disappearance is related to the hole on the top?

Now I didn't bother to check the corpse of the Taoist priest, so I immediately beckoned everyone to find a way to go up to the cave on the top.

The cave above was nearly two feet above the ground, and the smoke man was injured in the arm, so I handed over the task of climbing to the fat man and the Kuroko, who were good at climbing. When they reached the top of the wall, they immediately bowed their heads and reported to me, "The cave on the top is too small to get into." ”

When I heard this, I thought, 'How is this good?' As a result, his eyes just fell on the monkey beside him, and he immediately smiled and said to him, "Little monkey, it's time for you to show your skills." ”

The monkey's brain is very flexible, and he immediately understood the meaning of my words, so he nodded, and then shouted at the fat two people above: "Don't come down first, don't come down first, take care of me on it for a while." After saying that, he began to kick and stretch his legs on the ground, and when he finished stretching his muscles, he began to climb up with the help of ropes.

The monkey knows how to shrink bones, and if he wants to get into the narrow hole above, he has to go.

The monkey soon climbed to the top, and through the rope set up by the fat man, he came to the top of the cave and put his hands in.

I held up my flashlight and saw that the monkey had already buried half of its body into the burrow at some point, twisted its legs a few times, and then disappeared from my sight.

After a while, the earth began to fall down with a clatter, and I thought that the monkey had missed, and I was afraid that he would be injured if he fell, so I stood at the bottom of the cave and was baptized by the mud.

After a while, I suddenly heard a monkey's voice from above, "Master Wen, I dug the entrance of the cave wide, you all climb up!" This is going to surprise you!"

Hearing the monkey's shout, everyone's curiosity was immediately aroused, and everyone began to climb up with the help of ropes.

I stayed at the end of the climb to have time to examine the remains of the Taoist priest. The corpse was very weathered, the Taoist robe on the body could be faintly identified as cyan embroidery, and the Taoist boots with white soles on the feet were also worn. The flashlight swept over the Taoist seniors, and I suddenly found that there was a black vajra hanging on the Taoist priest's neck, with a nine-sided beast head and a blade on three sides, which was exactly the same as the vajra in my hand, which was completely a miniature version, and I couldn't help but immediately tear off the rope curiously, and take it in my hand to take a closer look. Suddenly felt a supreme sense of familiarity, looked at the Taoist seniors lying on the ground again, and suddenly felt familiar, like a dream. I couldn't help but secretly say in my heart: Could it be that I and this Taoist friend were friends and confidants in our previous lives, or were we close relatives of master and apprentice? If not, how should this sense of familiarity be explained?

I don't know at this moment that the weathered dry bone in front of me is actually me!

I tied the vajra pendant around my neck, said goodbye to the dry bones of the Taoist priest, and climbed to the top of the cave.

Climbing to the ground, I was immediately struck by what I saw. I saw that I had come to the ground, not far in front of me, suddenly appeared green pines around the wall, hidden in the handsome green daisy, a quiet and elegant fairy cave.

Clouds and mist linger on the top of the mountain, fragrant flowers dot the meadows, emerald green moss guards the towering rocks, and pine trees stand on both sides of the cave gate, and the colorful stone gate awaits unknown visitors from afar.

I seemed to be floating in the clouds, and I walked to the stone gate of the fairy cave under my feet, and found that the cliff above the stone gate was engraved with four large fonts, but I only knew that one of them was a dream word, and the rest was completely unknown, and it was estimated that this was the name of the fairy cave. After looking closely at the stone door, I was surprised to find that there was a small three-edged keyhole on the stone door, which was completely consistent with the vajra pendant I was wearing around my neck. It turned out that the weathered Taoist predecessor underground was the owner who lived here. Looking at the appearance of this immortal cave, you know that the Taoist friends who cultivate here should have realized the Tao and become immortals, but for some reason they have such a tragic end.

I inserted the vajra charm into the keyhole, but I didn't expect that the heavy stone door, which had been abandoned for many years and covered with moss, would creak open on its own. Suddenly, there was a fragrance wafting out from the cave, which made everyone feel refreshed, their eyes were light, and they swept away the tiredness of many days. Everyone couldn't help but be overjoyed, and they all strode into the Immortal Cave Mansion excitedly.

In the cave where the milk stones are all over, the air is fragrant, extraordinarily refreshing, and there is no trace of dampness and corruption.

The crowd sighed again and again, and stepped into the depths of the cave, but saw that there were stone tables, stone benches, and stone beds shiny as new, as if there were still people living here.

The fat man walked up to me and asked me, "Lao Zheng, is this a place where the gods live?" ”

I shook my head and said to him, "It's the cave where the previous immortal fellow lived in the cave. ”

The fat man nodded when he heard this, and he urged me to leave this place as much as possible.

I stood in the cave for a moment, looked around, and for some reason, I suddenly felt dizzy, and many fragments that I had never seen before suddenly appeared in my mind. The sound of the fat man urging me to leave, like the buzzing of mosquitoes, suddenly made me feel lightheaded, my heart was stuffed with discomfort, and I almost fell to the ground.

When the fat man saw that my face had deteriorated and my body was shaking, he hurriedly held me up and helped me out of the cave.

The breeze in the forest swept over my ears and temples, and I suddenly felt a lot clearer, and the fat man asked me worriedly, "Lao Zheng, are you okay?" ”

There's nothing strange about the cave, because the others don't feel any discomfort, but it disturbs my mind. He took a deep breath of the fresh grass aroma, and then said to the fat man, "I'm fine, tell everyone to come out and continue to look for Zha Ling'er." ”

The fat man gave me an uneasy look, and then immediately turned around and entered the cave to beckon everyone to leave.

I glanced back at the cave in front of me, and I had a wonderful feeling of déjà vu floating in my heart! I felt inexplicable about this feeling, but an indescribable sense of melancholy welled up in my heart! (To be continued......)
